Need help and input on race timer

Post by doct1010 »

Hi all. Been awhile. My son has crossed over and much to his chagrin (and mine lol) we will not be racing this season. However I have been drafted by current Derby chair to "help out" due to my vast experience :-) yeah right.

The pack is considering a new timer. We already own gran prix race management software. They were considering this:

Any and all input welcome. TIA DocT

They are both the same thing except the first (K-2) has options available and is'nt a timer until you get the serial port option, it is only a display of finish order just the same as the K-1, except the K-2 has numbers instead of blinking lights.

Now the K-2 Grand Prix Package has all the available options already installed and also includes the laser starting gate.

Many of the options do come in handy ; but if you are wanting only the serial port option go for the K-2.

If you want or need 2, 3 or more options for the K-2 I would go for the complete K-2 package and also get the laser that is included.

Personnally, I find the laser gate to more of a hassel than of benefit.

I had rather have the remote starting switch that comes with the serial port option.

If it were me and were considering the K-2 Grand Package I would go ahead and spend the other $20.00 and get the K-3 Package
